Ps 34:1-2
Judge thou, O Lord, them that wrong me : overthrow them that fight against me. Take hold of arms and shield : and rise up to help me. O Lord, my salvation.
Ps 34:3
Bring out the sword, and shut up the way against them that persecute me : say to my soul : I am thy salvation.
Judge thou, O Lord, them that wrong me : overthrow them that fight against me. Take hold of arms and shield : and rise up to help me. O Lord, my salvation.
Ps 34:1-2.
Júdica, Dómine, nocéntes me, expúgna impugnántes me: apprehénde arma et scutum, et exsúrge in adjutórium meum, Dómine, virtus salútis meæ.
Ps 34:3
Effúnde frámeam, et conclúde advérsus eos, qui persequúntur me: dic ánimæ meæ: Salus tua ego sum.
Júdica, Dómine, nocéntes me, expúgna impugnántes me: apprehénde arma et scutum, et exsúrge in adjutórium meum, Dómine, virtus salútis meæ.
Grant, we beseech thee, almighty God, that we who fail through our weakness in so many difficulties, may be relieved through the pleading of the Passion of thy only-begotten Son.
Who livest and reignest with God the Father…
Da, quǽsumus, omnípotens Deus: ut, qui in tot advérsis ex nostra infirmitáte defícimus; intercedénte unigéniti Fílii tui passióne respirémus:

Lesson from the Book of Isaias, the Prophet
Isa 50:5-10
The Lord God hath opened my ear, and I do not resist: I have not gone back. I have given my body to the strikers, and my cheeks to them that plucked them: I have not turned away my face from them that rebuked me, and spit upon me. The Lord God is my helper, therefore am I not confounded: therefore have I set my face as a most hard rock, and I know that I shall not be confounded. He is near that justifieth me, who will contend with me? let us stand together, who is my adversary? let him come near to me. Behold the Lord God is my helper: who is he that shall condemn me? Lo, they shall all be destroyed as a garment, the moth shall eat them up. Who is there among you that feareth the Lord, that heareth the voice of his servant, that hath walked in darkness, and hath no light? let him hope in the name of the Lord, and lean upon his God.
Léctio Isaíæ Prophétæ
Isa 50:5-10
In diébus illis: Dixit Isaías: Dóminus Deus apéruit mihi aurem, ego autem non contradíco: retrórsum non ábii. Corpus meum dedi percutiéntibus et genas meas velléntibus: fáciem meam non avérti ab increpántibus et conspuéntibus in me. Dóminus Deus auxiliátor meus, ídeo non sum confúsus: ídeo posui fáciem meam ut petram duríssimam, et scio, quóniam non confúndar. Juxta est, qui justíficat me, quis contradícet mihi? Stemus simul, quis est adversárius meus? Accédat ad me. Ecce, Dóminus Deus auxiliátor meus: quis est, qui condémnet me? Ecce, omnes quasi vestiméntum conteréntur, tinea cómedet eos. Quis ex vobis timens Dóminum, áudiens vocem servi sui? Qui ambulávit in ténebris, et non est lumen ei, speret in nómine Dómini, et innitátur super Deum suum.
Ps 34:23; 34:3
Arise, and be attentive to my judgment : to my cause, my God, and my Lord.
℣. Bring out the sword, and shut up the way against them that persecute me

Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to John
John 12:1-9
Jesus therefore, six days before the pasch, came to Bethania, where Lazarus had been dead, whom Jesus raised to life. And they made him a supper there: and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that were at table with him. Mary therefore took a pound of ointment of right spikenard, of great price, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. Then one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, he that was about to betray him, said: Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and having the purse, carried the things that were put therein. Jesus therefore said: Let her alone, that she may keep it against the day of my burial. For the poor you have always with you; but me you have not always. A great multitude therefore of the Jews knew that he was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.
Sequéntia ☩ sancti Evangélii secúndum Joánnem.
Joann 12:1-9
Ante sex dies Paschæ venit Jesus Bethániam, ubi Lázarus fúerat mórtuus, quem suscitávit Jesus. Fecérunt autem ei cenam ibi: et Martha ministrábat, Lázarus vero unus erat ex discumbéntibus cum eo. María ergo accépit libram unguénti nardi pístici pretiósi, et unxit pedes Jesu, et extérsit pedes ejus capíllis suis: et domus impléta est ex odóre unguénti. Dixit ergo unus ex discípulis ejus, Judas Iscariótes, qui erat eum traditúrus: Quare hoc unguéntum non véniit trecéntis denáriis, et datum est egénis? Dixit autem hoc, non quia de egénis pertinébat ad eum, sed quia fur erat, et lóculos habens, ea, quæ mittebántur, portábat. Dixit ergo Jesus: Sínite illam, ut in diem sepultúræ meæ servet illud. Páuperes enim semper habétis vobíscum: me autem non semper habétis. Cognóvit ergo turba multa ex Judǽis, quia illic est: et venérunt, non propter Jesum tantum, sed ut Lázarum vidérent, quem suscitávit a mórtuis.
Ps 142:9-10
Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled: teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God.
Ps 142:9-10
Eripe me de inimícis meis, Dómine: ad te confúgi, doce me fácere voluntátem tuam: quia Deus meus es tu.
May these sacrifices, almighty God, make us, whom thou cleansest by thy mighty power, to approach their source with greater purity.
Through our Lord…
Hæc sacrifícia nos, omnípotens Deus, poténti virtúte mundátos, ad suum fáciant purióres veníre princípium.

Holy Cross
It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God; Who didst establish the salvation of mankind on the tree of the Cross; that whence death came, thence also life might arise again, and that he, who overcame by the tree, by the tree also might be overcome: Through Christ our Lord. Through whom the Angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominations worship it, the Powers stand in awe. The Heavens and the heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with these we entreat Thee that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted while we say with lowly praise:
de Sancta Cruce
Vere dignum et justum est, æquum et salutáre, nos tibi semper et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus: Qui salútem humáni géneris in ligno Crucis constituísti: ut, unde mors oriebátur, inde vita resúrgeret: et, qui in ligno vincébat, in ligno quoque vincerétur: per Christum, Dóminum nostrum. Per quem majestátem tuam laudant Angeli, adórant Dominatiónes, tremunt Potestátes. Cæli cælorúmque Virtútes ac beáta Séraphim sócia exsultatióne concélebrant. Cum quibus et nostras voces ut admítti júbeas, deprecámur, súpplici confessióne dicéntes:
Ps 34:26
Let them blush: and be ashamed together, who rejoice at my evils. Let them be clothed with confusion and shame, who speak great things against me.
Ps 34:26
Erubéscant et revereántur simul, qui gratulántur malis meis: induántur pudóre et reveréntia, qui malígna loquúntur advérsus me.
Let thy holy mysteries, O Lord, inspire us with divine fervor, that we may delight both in their celebration and in their fruit.
Through our Lord…
Prǽbeant nobis, Dómine, divínum tua sancta fervórem: quo eórum páriter et actu delectémur et fructu.
Per Dominum…
